Trix got the golden ticket!
As you should hopefully be aware of by now (follow this link if you’re not clued up) every copy of the C.S.C Video ‘Join Us‘ came a golden ticket that could lead to a variety of exciting prizes! The first winner was the scummiest person to ever buy a camera, one Mike ‘Trix’ Ridout. His prize: a day of heavy boozing with Christopher Gibbons, who you might be familiar with, he used to be sponsored apparently.
Please watch the video edit below, depicting all the nightmarish activities that occured on a bench that now stinks of filth. ‘ave it Wales.
Health and Safety Advice: Binge drinking is not only terrible for your health, but makes you act like these clowns. Please drink responsibly, unless you’re being filmed by a Pirate for the benefit of the internet.
‘Join Us’ Premiere
30th July
Dempsey’s Bar
A walk through Cardiff’s St Mary’s Street on a Friday night may land you into some pretty surreal situations. If you’re lucky you won’t be glassed outside one of the more unfriendly bars and perhaps you’ll find your way to Dempsey’s, the warm location for tonight’s premiere of Christian ‘Pirate Man’ Hart’s latest inexplicable audio/visual creation and the first ‘proper’ CSC video ‘Join Us‘.
No one throws a premiere quite like the Welsh. Tom Hobson put on his finest dog outfit for his role as DJ. That’s if you call putting on a track and then twenty seconds later changing it and then leaving an album on for a bit and then skipping through songs so the 150+ attending heard five second clips for a couple minutes DJing, I know I bloody do. Everyone was so out of their minds at this point anyway, getting increasingly paranoid as the boxman surrounded them. A couple had to double check themselves as the junior CSC were in attendance and the balloons that were scattered everywhere caused a few people to wonder if they’d accidentally entered a very illegal brothel.
Drunks and children aside, tonight was defined by one of the most out-there yet entirely compelling scene videos I’ve ever seen. Pirate Man has regularly shunned conventions in the past; the Hi-8 cut and paste bonanzas Labyrinth and First Blood mix skating with clips of films, adverts and other things even he isn’t too sure about. But ‘Join Us’ takes these ideas and compounds them into something that’s not only weird and funny, but very watchable. The skating summons both the weird and the gnarly too, resulting for a must see for not just those interested in the constantly growing and forever friendly Welsh skate scene, but those interested into how far the boundaries of a skate video can be pushed…into the gutter. Expect a proper review when a DVD arrives and I can remember what happened because I don’t think anyone there could accurately recall what happened, if it even did happen. The pictures taken say the dream was real…
